# Setting your time zone

Two time zones can be set on a CareerPlug account: your personal default time zone and the account's default time zone. A user with any level of access may set their personal default time zone, but only account administrators can set the account's default time zone.

### How time zones are used

CareerPlug allows you to set a default time zone. When you confirm interview times with applicants, the time zone selected by default will be the one you designated.

Whatever time zone you set on a confirmation email will override your account and/or personal default time zone setting.

### Personal default time zone

To set or edit your personal default time zone, navigate to **My Profile**.

Navigate to your **Settings** tab and click the **Edit** button in the top right corner of the page.

Select your personal default time zone from the drop-down menu.

Scroll to the bottom of the Profile Settings page and click the **Save** button.

Users with any level of access can set their personal default time zone.

### Account default time zone

Account administrators can set the default time zone on the entire account. This account time zone will be selected by default on the interview confirmation emails *unless a user has their personal time zone configured differently.*

To set your account's default time zone, navigate to **Settings \> My Organization \> Company Profile**. Choose your time zone from the **Default Time Zone** drop-down menu. **Save** your changes.
